What A Bunch of SchickHeads!!! (Lovers of Schick Razors!)

[nortac]

I use my Schick E more often than not if I'm not using a straight. I do have a Revere handled injector, very mild.

Happy New Year, Schickheads! I plan to use my Schick Hydromagic to ring in the new year!

Happy New Year to you too! My first shave of the New Year was with my N2 Injector.

Mine will be with my "Golden 500"

I'm officially a schickhead! Got my razor today, I believe it is a schick L1. Looks brand new. Shaved with a Schick blade, effortless BBS. Was also my first time using Arko which was great too!

Gosh now I have to stock up on blades

Welcome to the club. "Effortless results" is the name of the game here.

I have several Schicks and actually prefer them to my DE's. I also have a bunch of repeaters, and I found the attached set of original vintage instructions on how to load Types "B" (called the "Square" razor!) and "C". I'm including them for general info.

Does anyone know where I can find a Type "A" repeater? [email protected].

Thanx.

I just won one off the bay to see what all the praise is about. It's an Eversharp and I believe a type G. Are there any resources that list out what the different models are, what they look like?


eBay pic, I wanted one with the metal crackle finish (don't know why, it just seemed better)

Thanks Tom, I have never seen this site before, looks to be some great background info there. Also, haven't seen a site with HTML frames for years - old school!

Yeah, that site is pretty old, and hasn't been updated much recently.

I was doing some last minute 2012 shopping on Amazon since I was almost out of injector blades. Found sone Personna 74 that were the same price per blade as a Chick 7 pack.
Arrived today. If it weren't for the fact that I decided to dedicated this week to straights......
A 14 pack of 74s should last me through 2015 at the rate I use em. Looking forward to seeing if they are as good as legends tell.

 

[Zagnut]

I got an order of Injector 74's coming as well. I was surprised at their cost. At about a dollar per blade, they should be a much better buy, if they last as long as their reputation suggests. I should hope I can be disciplined enough to use one blade until it's well and truly dead to see how long I can make one last.

It is great to see so many SchickHeads out and about in this thread!!!

My morning shave was just a regular old butterschotch handled 40's Schick. Nirvana!

 

[RocketMan]

That REALLY works for me! With an inventory of hardware like that you are truly a first class one on top of it!

Sunday shave,Feb 16th 2020- I like to use my Pal Injecto-matic every once in a while, two many injectors and not enough days. The Pal company spent well over 1 million dollars to develop this razor in the 1950's and they did a nice job for a injector IMO.

Blade: Schick injector
Soap: Barrister and Mann Seville
Brush : Yaqi timberwolf 24 mm synthetic
Pre-shave: Brush wash my face with CeraVe hand bar soap + a dollop of clear Aloe vera gel on beard area.
Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 3.
Post shave: Razorock American barber with witch Hazel + Nivea Men balm.

Just last night the LOTH called me a Schickhead....at least that's what I think she called me....I WAS shaving with a Schick at the time . I'll return here with some pics and missing #'s to go with the letters, but I've got an A, couple of B's, a C1, (no D , yet), a few E's, (no F or G , yet), an H1, a J, K, and several L's, an M3, an N, but no O . There is not a dud in the bunch, and I would be VERY hard pressed to let any of them go.

I have to add, it is REALLY good to see you @RocketMan! You're one of my SE-Super-Heroes. I hope to see more of you around here!!!

I have collected and used all of these Schick injectors and one Pal injecto-matic razors.
They consist of E2, E3 Canadian models+ G1 hybrid Canadian model, i2 hydro-magic, J1,J3 Golden 500 hydro-magic, L2 Stick Schick theme, L6 Easy rider Theme & L7 Champion 1976 Olympic theme, M3 or model 3 adjustable- excellent razor.
Great razors and I like to have my Sunday shave with a different model if possible. Injectors should be in every ones collection IMO.

Have some great shaves!
